Leading Off
Man, there is just nothing going on in the world of Orioles Baseball. I mean, there’s some stuff. If you care about things like mini-camps for pitchers that may not make the team, or arbitration figures for players everyone knows will be on the team, then there’s stuff going on.

Here is what is happening in the world of Orioles Baseball, in 280 characters, or fewer:

Congrats to Brooke, Caleb Joseph on their baby girl, Nora Ellington! #nocryinginbaseball @masnOrioles

The return from McCutchen is underwhelming, but honestly, McCutchen's trade value wasn't that high either.

How Andy Etchebarren and Terry Crowley are NOT in the Orioles Hall of Fame is a mystery to me. Both were important role players during our glory years AND they spent many years coaching within the organization. @OrioleAdvocates @Jim22Palmer

Around the Bases

 
We scraped at the bottom of the barrel to find some Orioles news, and here’s the best that we found:

* Hot Stove Slow Burn
* Frustrating “news” about starting pitching.
* Arbitration notes
* Can MLB support 32 teams?
* Orioles season ticket “perks.”


Five Stages of Gin

Scott has sprung for a fainting couch here at SD Studios. Jake lays down and experiences the five stages of grief.
Where are you on the grief schedule? What would you bargain for, with Manny Machado?
 
 
Blowing the Save



 
Most podcasts try to end on a high note – the perfect coda to a quality program. That’s just not our style. Each week, we’ll end on a weak note, blowing the save with an item that didn’t quite fit into the episode, or something they simply need to get off their chests. It’s our version of taking the ball and pulling a Kevin Gregg.
